Venice (Italian: Venezia [veˈnɛttsja] , Venetian: Venexia [veˈnɛsja]) is a city in northern Italy known both for tourism and for industry, and is the capital of the region Veneto, with a population of the whole Comune of about 270,660 (census estimate 30 April 2009). Together with Padua and Treviso, the city is included in the Padua-Treviso-Venice Metropolitan Area (PATREVE) (population 1,600,000). The name is derived from the ancient people of Veneti that inhabited the region as of 10th century B.C. The city historically was the capital of the Venetian Republic. Venice has been known as the "La Dominante", "Serenissima", "Queen of the Adriatic", "City of Water", "City of Masks", "City of Bridges", "The Floating City", and "City of Canals". Luigi Barzini, writing in The New York Times, described it as "undoubtedly the most beautiful city built by man". Venice has also been described by the Times Online as being one of Europe's most romantic cities. The city stretches across 117 small islands in the marshy Venetian Lagoon along the Adriatic Sea in northeast Italy. The saltwater lagoon stretches along the shoreline between the mouths of the Po (south) and the Piave (north) Rivers. The population estimate of 272,000 inhabitants includes the population of the whole Comune of Venezia; around 60,000[5] in the historic city of Venice (Centro storico); 176,000 in Terraferma (the Mainland), mostly in the large frazioni of Mestre and Marghera; and 31,000 live on other islands in the lagoon. The Republic of Venice was a major maritime power during the Middle Ages and Renaissance, and a staging area for the Crusades and the Battle of Lepanto, as well as a very important center of commerce (especially silk, grain and spice trade) and art in the 13th century up to the end of the 17th century. This made Venice a wealthy city throughout most of its history. It is also known for its several important artistic movements, especially the Renaissance period. Venice has played an important role in the history of symphonic and operatic music, and it is the birthplace of Antonio Vivaldi. www.jekaworldphotography.com/
Venice was by far my favorite leg of this trip; I think that’s part of why I’m having such a hard time coming around to writing about it. I’m not quite sure how to put Venice int…

The Holy Island of Lindisfarne is hands down one of my all-time favourite places in the North of England. There is nothing quite like driving over to this magical tidal island for a day out.

Another very nice and colourful official card I received last year. GR-8961 Mykonos is a Greek island and one of the most popular tourist destinations, and such views as on the card are something very typical for these places. And honestly, i love it! It is just so inexplicably charming and I love the spirit of such *old town* parts. Though i could never figure out how people are able to live here with sooooo many tourists passing by every single second...where there is no *P* of privacy! I cant see it well enough, but I think that on the left wall, whats hanging on there, are postcards :) there are two stamps on the card. The one on the left is from 2008 from a set of 10 stamps representing the Greek Islands, and this one shows Chios. The other stamp is from 2009, issued to commemorate the 10 years since the Economic and Monetary Union of Europe.
